Logos, screenshots & stuff
editHi - sorry to say you are going to have problems with these. Anyone logo will "belong" to them legally (& similarly screenshots of games). You could take a stab at asking them if it is ok but they would need to confirm this via OTRS. More info on licensing is here and asking on the talk page may get you more views.

- It is a grey area maybe. To me, looking at it again, it is distinctive. The combination of colours, the underlining & the text style (which does not look "standard" font to me) seem to be a possible copyright issue. If you want to get some certainty I'd take it to an undelete request. You comment, I'll comment & others will make a decision - I'm certainly not saying you are wrong & would say that there?
